Hop Abroad Inspiration – A Little Creative Journey

4 October 2026
Leave a Comment

4 Oct

Hello lovely crafty friends,

Welcome to another Hop Abroad Instagram Hop! I’m so happy to be joining this creative group and sharing a little handmade inspiration with you today with the theme – “Fall/ Thank you “
I used the beautiful DSP and the Secret Sea Ribbon

I started with a textured background and built the design layer by layer. The little details, from the delicate leaves and flowers to the soft ribbon and tiny embellishments, helped bring everything together. I also love adding a little dimension to my cards, so there are plenty of layers and different textures to explore.

Head over to Instagram and hop along with the other talented crafters taking part in the Hop Abroad Insta Hop. There are lots of beautiful projects waiting for you, and I hope you find plenty of inspiration along the way.

Hello lovely crafty friends, It’s time for anothe Hello lovely crafty friends,

It’s time for another Hop Abroad Insta Hop! 
This month our theme is Fall / Thank You Cards, and for my card I wanted to play with warm colours, lots of layers and a little bit of texture.
I really enjoy making cards like this, where you can keep looking and notice all the little details. I added the embossed background, foliage, ribbon and a few embellishments to give the card some dimension.

For my project, I decided to create an Autumn-insp For my project, I decided to create an Autumn-inspired card with a vintage feel. I wanted the card to have those warm, gentle colours that remind me of Autumn, while keeping the overall design soft and elegant.
I also added some delicate flowers to the design. I love how flowers can bring a little softness to a vintage-style card, and they worked beautifully with the Autumn colours.
I had so much fun putting all the little details together — choosing the colours, layering the elements and adding those finishing touches that make a card feel special.
